Heh. Playing the game now. You're gonna have to sink hundreds of hours to fill that damn tree. I got 48hrs clocked and only Level 26. Barely touched rank 3 perks and haven't maxed out one yet.
I say if you put a month game time into a single character, fuck it be good at everything. Builds be damned. You earned it.
I also like how you have to successfully use the skills you unlock in order to level them more
Fallout 76 came out five years ago. It's the only Bethesda game in recent history. (I still really like it)
Thats not true! Skyrim came out 2 years ago. Before that they had Skyrim which came out 5 years ago, piggybacking off the success of Skyrim which came out 6 years ago. There was also Skyrim back in 2011 which I guess was more than 12 years ago but it feels like just yesterday.
Skyrim came out on every platform except Linux. That's a slap in the face.
In other words, they release games at a similar rate to most AAA developers that aren't making CoD or yearly sports titles?
Fallout 3 is older than me baha
How often do people expect developers to release AAA titles?
Guerrilla Games released Horizon Forbidden West in 2022, and the only previous title in 'recent' history' was the prequel 5 years earlier.
Larian released BG3 this year, and the only previous title in recent history was Original Sin 2 was 6 years earlier.
I'll stick to my boomer shooters.
Is this supposed to make me want to play the game?
No. What it is is their best game since Skyrim. I'm enjoying it for what it is. For one I'm playing a charismatic/diplo character and there are so many Persuade and skill check options in dialog. Far more than in the last 4 Bethesda games combined. And if that's boring I've also specced into John Wick one/two hit kill Pistol shit too.
